Moving to a new office is an exciting change — but it’s also one that’s highly stressful. You may think you nailed everything on your “to-do” list, but moving documents can generate hidden costs if you don’t plan. You may think your files are already maintained, but when it’s all added up, your papers can amount to a significant transfer. ScansAmerica is your primary solution when you’re planning for an office move.
